{"product_id":"preciosa-pearls-button-half-drilled-crystal-light-blue-pearl","title":"Preciosa Pearls Button (Half Drilled) Light Blue","description":"\u003cp\u003ePreciosa Button pearls in Light Blue are genuine Czech-made half drilled pearls with a crystal core and a coated pearl surface. Available in 6mm, 10mm and 16mm in retail packs of 4, 6 and 10 and wholesale packs of 50. The hole is drilled part way into the pearl rather than through it, so it seats onto a peg or post and is fixed with adhesive. That leaves the surface unbroken on the visible side, which is what a pendant end or an earring post needs, but it does mean these cannot be strung through. Light Blue is a soft pale blue with a clean even lustre. Suited to earrings, pendant ends, ring settings and any finding that seats onto a peg or post.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Preciosa Nacre Pearls\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Preciosa Button pearl is a flattened round with a domed face and a shallower profile than a full sphere, so it sits closer to the surface. The reduced depth suits earring posts and settings where a full round would stand too proud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreciosa Nacre Pearls are built on a solid crystal core rather than glass or plastic, then finished with a coated pearl surface. The crystal core gives them the weight of a real pearl in the hand, and the coating is formulated to resist perfume, sweat and cosmetics, so the colour holds where a conventional pearl coating would dull or flake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck the peg diameter against the drill hole before you commit, and use a \u003ca href=\"\/en-gb\/collections\/rhinestone-glue\"\u003ejewellery-grade adhesive\u003c\/a\u003e or a dedicated pearl glue. Push the pearl down fully so none of the shaft remains visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGenuine Preciosa, Supplied Direct\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreciosa has been making glass in Bohemia since 1548 and still makes every pearl in the Czech Republic.
